Demise of 'family hour' a product of gradual laxity in standards, says media study |
http://www.onenewsnow.com/2007/09/demise_of_family_hour_a_produc.php
The broadcast television time slot once the home of Happy Days and
Little House on the Prairie is now nowhere near as family-friendly --
according to the latest "family hour" study from a high-profile TV
watchdog group.
The Parents Television Council (PTC) study says in the six years since
the last check-up on "family hour," there has been a 50-plus percent
increase in violent content, and a 20-plus percent increase in sexual
content during the weekday hours of 8-9 p.m., and 7-9 p.m. on Sunday.
The study, titled The Alarming Family Hour ... No Place for Children,
monitored six networks and also notes that while mild profanity
dropped during the six-year period, instances of extreme profanity
increased.
PTC's Melissa Henson says the continued degradation is a natural
extension of decreasing program standards that started in the 1990s.
"The family hour really started to break apart in the mid-90s with the
introduction of shows like Friends and Mad About You," she explains,
noting that such programs "were really geared to a more mature
audience and adult audience debuting during the family hour."
Prior to that breakdown in standards, she says, those time slots were
characterized by programs that families did not have to worry about
containing offensive material and could "sit down and safely,
comfortably watch together." She cites among those programs such
series as Little House on the Prairie, Highway to Heaven, and Touched
by an Angel.
According to a report in Broadcasting magazine, network program
producers consider "family hour" an outdated notion with the advent of
blocking technologies, specialty cable, and satellite channels
available for children. But Henson contends a majority of American
viewers still watch broadcast television during evening hours -- and
that, she says, makes family hour a necessity, which means networks
need to respond to the decency standard demanded by the public, which
owns the airwaves.

That's much to complicated for the conservative worms, you know.
They much rather would like someone else to turn it off. For everyone.

Forgot how Venezuela and so many other oil rich nations are snubbing their

Guess what opec nations' domestic oil prices are?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Alternate energy crossed your mind lately and less reliance on militaristic
tax programs to ensure the oil supply while its price rises?
Guess how fast those nations are getting richer and richer on our dime while
we forgoe progress.

What smut?
And, the payments to me aren't unwilling payments.
Those payments were enacted into law in the 1930s by a representative
legislature.

Hey, theocrat. Can you say off switch? Sure, I knew you could.
Sure he can.
I can say 'off switch' on the pay for freedom of speech satellites
and
cable
networks.
You don't have to pay for the "smut" you don't want, prison boy.
I don't pay for smut,
*You don't
I already told you that.
*Yes - I only reaffirmed your answer.
* - but the state who sends you the disability cheques do.
They do?
*Yes. The cash you get is from the taxpayers - they unwillingly pay for
*your fucking smut, so to speak.
What smut?
The smut you watch.
And, the payments to me aren't unwilling payments.
I was referring to the taxpayers' will.

Yeah.
Those military budgets that bring us porno from those foreign nations.
Thanks for reminding me.
Reminds me of when the recruiter showed us a porno in the late seventies and
said, "This is what the real military is about."

Yeah, I know.
We all pay for it whether we watch it or not and whether we want to or not.
How about that?
Why should we pay anything for their prono operations?
I agree that we shouldn't.
After all is it helping you or your children?
And, the payments to me aren't unwilling payments.

Seems to me 'a chicken in every pot' is something that you think the

Oh, yeah.
No one has hacked the satellite company's computers yet, huh?
Yeah.
No one has offerred anyone in that department an enough cash to get them to
do it.
Yeah, I know.
Satellite tv is free in Europe.
Understand why the EU is up so much vs the dollar?
Why are you against television reception of signals in the airwaves being
free to the people of the USA?
It's been that way since before either one of us were born.
People used to buy a radio or a tv and receive all signals without charge,
at least without a subscription fee being charged.
I own stock in DirecTV.
They aren't returning enough for me to support their ludicrous

So sell your stock and pay the taxes on your capital gain.
Not sure if it is at a gain now, actually.

Maybe I would, but sharebuilder charges a commission, or did, on the back
end that exceeded the value of the stock at last check.
Maybe if I could group some stocks together and liquidate them at one

If the commission (it's on a percentage basis with a minimum) is more
than the value of the stock, sell the stock (all the shares you hold)
for $1, and take the loss.
Oh, you probably don't pay any tax, so that's not a problem for you.
That's what a taxpayer would do.
Maybe if I could group some stocks together and liquidate them at one
commission rate I would.
Or have a broker that doesn't charge more than $44 (assuming you only
have 1 share) a transaction.

But, the level of the fine wasn't commensurate with the received 'product'
value.

Still against justice?
Still into excessive punishments?
Loss of income claim is about all they can get in such a case.
Actual damages are all they can claim.
